The key, he argued, would be reducing the number of missiles fired in each attack. “If #Iran keeps the volume of each barrage below 50 missiles, it can prolong this war for weeks,” said Mahmoudian, an expert on Iran’s #military and regional policy.
“Iran has no problem with the number of missiles and possesses a significant stock of projectiles, especially now that the battlefield has expanded across the #MiddleEast and it can rely on a large part of its arsenal, including short-range missiles.”
However, scaling down attacks would also reduce their impact, he noted.
